Monday November 30, 2015Aston Villa 2 - 3 Watford

Micah scored his first goal for Villa but it wasn’t enough to secure a much-needed three points against Watford, the visitors securing a 3-2 win.

The dismal 4-0 defeat at the hands of Everton in their last league outing called for a much better performance against the Hornets, something the players did deliver, but the defensive toils continued as Villa broke the club’s record after a 13th game without a win.

The Villa crowd were silenced but they had reason to cheer soon after as Micah grabbed an equaliser, rising above his marker to steer Jordan Veretout’s free-kick home to make it one-apiece.

Not long after the restart Watford were ahead again, Alan Hutton’s unfortunate interception coasting past Guzan. Troy Deeney made it 3-1 and put daylight between the sides, and despite Jordan Ayew’s fine late goal, Villa suffered another loss to leave the side seven points clear of safety.
